Smelly head
"Hey mum today I smelt my mates head and he smelt mine.....then we both said yuck!!!!! And decided we should have a bath tonight" says Alexander....good idea I thought!!! I certainly don't have that kind of influence to get him to have a bath.

"wow!! But we're not going on it are we? Daddy?"
An overwhelmed titanic obsessed 4 year old Andres....We decided to take the kids to wave farewell the queen Mary from port Melbourne. It took up the whole horizon as we drove closer to it.
When looking at it you wondered how it stayed afloat. To which I get asked every couple of days "is the queen Mary still floating?", miss Jana, 6.
The dark side
After watching an episode of Star Wars miss Jana says "I like the dark side mum". Oh dear what am I to do with that.
Jana is preparing me for teenage hood - drop a bombshell and see how my parents react. "mum I got married on the weekend", "I got a tattoo", "I'm pregnant" ......scary.
Perhaps they should call puberty the "Dark Side"...it's a time when they work out who they are and decide whether they are with the Empire or the Imperial side. Or something like that anyway. So we are Yoda in the scheme of things, guiding them to do the right thing, listen to their heart and feel their way through life. "There is no TRY there is only DO. To try is to fail" and all that.
Luckily I have a few more years before she loses that innocent way of thinking and enters the dark side. Let's just hope she comes out of it on the right side :)

"Mummy can you marry a girl" says Jana, 6. "Because I dont want to have babies cut from my tummy!"
This is a recurring theme with my little girl. She has a fear of having babies - not that she doesnt like babies.

"Well Im going to marry my Mum" says Alexander
"you cant do that" says his friend. "she's too old!!!"... :(
"There's a spikey in my room!!!"
Andres screams out in the middle of the night. "Daddy, Daddy there's a spikey in my room". We still dont know what a spikey is. A spider, a bug????? No to all of these explanations.
